I have a container that is working similar to notifications in mac os - elements are added to the queue and removed after a certain timeout. This works great but has one jarring visual side effect.
When they are removed from the DOM there is a jagged update to the UI as the next element in the stack fills the void created by the previous element. I would like the elements below in the stack to move up into that space smoothly, ideally with css3 but adding a transition: all 0.5s ease-in-out
to the .notice
class had no effect on the object when its sibling was remove.
Minimal JS interpertation :
$('#add').click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$('#container').append('<p class="notice">Notice #</p>');
});
$('body').on('click','p.notice', function(e) {
$(this).fadeOut();
});
Better yet fiddle here :

I'm using a MVC framework to data-bind these objects so some native css / jQuery is preferred over a Jq plugin.
This should remove the clicked element with a fade out effect and then move everything below up smoothly. This will work for any notice
div in the stack regardless of it position within the stack.
Try:
$('body').on('click','p.notice', function(e) {
$(this).fadeOut(500,function(){
$(this).css({"visibility":"hidden",display:'block'}).slideUp();
});
});

Update August 7th, 2018:
As asked by one of the users about using pure JS to do the slideUp functionality, I've put together a quick demo using requestAnimationFrame to animate the height of an element. Fiddle can be found here.
jQuery's Animate() method is a great tool to learn because not only can you fade your objects in and out, but you can move them around, all at the same time.
The CSS:
.notice {
position:relative;
top:20px;
width: 100%;
height: 50px;
background-color: #ccc;
opacity:0;
}
The jQuery:
$('#add').click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$('#container').append('<p class="notice">Notice #</p>');
$('.notice').animate({opacity: 1, top:0}, 1000);
});
$('body').on('click','p.notice', function(e) {
$(this).fadeOut();
});
